Little White God
Leatherface Lyrics

He's in love with a little white god he said,
He is infatuated with a deity, white in color as he claims, and openly admits to it.

So in love he'll take it in the arm instead.
The extent of his adoration knows no bounds, he would even endure pain if it meant being closer to his god.

Happy, solomn, sombre and demure
The words he uses to describe his feelings towards his god may seem contradictory or meaningless.

Are the words that miss a point and a cure.
His words fail to capture the essence of his obsession, and in fact they do nothing to help him overcome it.

He's in love with a little brown god he said,
Another confession of his infatuation, this time with a brown-skinned deity whose religious significance is unknown.

I have seen the little beads on his forehead.
In support of his claim, he cites the traditional beads worn by some worshippers of such deities.

He'll watch the world go round from another place,
His love for his god causes him to disassociate from the real world, as if observing it from afar.

There's nothing wrong with this, it doesn't affect any heads.
He believes that his devotion is harmless to others, and causes no impact on anyone's thinking or behavior.

We can't live by laws, watchmaking.
He rejects the idea of living a regulated or mechanical life according to societal norms and rules.

We can't live like whores, babes and children.
Further rejecting the society's ways, he sees the overly sexualized, innocent, or immature lifestyles as undesirable or undesirable.

We can live 'lord of the flies', it's indicative,
He embraces the notion that people can exist in a state of savagery and chaos, as depicted in the novel 'Lord of the Flies', seeing it as an accurate expression of human nature.

We can live by, we can live, buy.
He proposes that instead of following laws or moral codes, we should live our lives by buying and consuming things.

Well he's in love and destructively demonstrative,
His love for his god causes him to act recklessly, endangering himself and others in the process.

To himself and you and the world inside.
His actions affect not only himself but also those around him and his inner mindset or worldview.

When he should kick against the mind manager,
Instead of rebelling against the oppressive forces of society, he directs his anger and frustration towards his own mental state.

It's tunnel vision in a furry colour techni.
His inability to broaden his perspective or see things in a different light is like having a narrow and fuzzy lens through which he filters reality.

It's the ultimate, not pick-up truck,
To him, his love for his god is the ultimate form of expression or achievement, not something as mundane as owning a vehicle.

He's in love with a very sad soul,
He is infatuated with someone who he perceives to be deeply unhappy or troubled.

He's so in love you wouldn't believe he was once good in goal.
His obsessive love has made him a different person than who he used to be, to the point where others may not recognize him anymore.

He's so in souled with a little brown god,
Once again expressing his love for a brown deity, whose importance to him is undeniable.

He doesn't trust himself, in fact he just doesn't trust.
His devotion may stem from his own lack of self-confidence or trust in his own abilities, causing him to seek refuge in something greater than himself.

We can live by laws, watchmaking.
Repeating his earlier sentiment, he once again refuses to live according to societal or mechanical rules.

We can't live like whores, babes and children.
He repeats his desire to avoid the lifestyle of promiscuity, innocence, or immaturity.

We can live 'lord of the flies', it's indicative.
Once again embracing the chaos and savagery of human nature, he suggests that living like the 'Lord of the Flies' is an accurate representation of how people should exist.

We can live by, we can live, buy.
Repeating his ill-conceived notion, he proposes that people should live their lives by buying and consuming things instead of following morals or laws.

We can live. Not me.
He distances himself from his own proposal, by saying that he himself cannot live according to these values.

We can live life. Not me.
He further underscores his rejection of his own values, by stating that he cannot live his own life the way he proposes others should live theirs.

We can live by... Not me.
He contradicts his proposal yet again, by saying that he cannot live by the same values that he is proposing.

We can live by...
Ending on a vague note, he simply repeats his idea of living according to consumption, without indicating whether he himself subscribes to this idea or not.
